Kelly's
POV
I kept on shaking my head while walking away from my office. Did I just agree to make him my suitor? Did I just give him permission to court me?
I paused and palmed my cheeks. Oh my God! What should I do? I can't go back and take it back, he won't let me.
Biting my bottom lip, I pressed my cheeks and groaned. What if he hurt me too? What if I made the wrong decision? Just thinking about it makes me so worried. I don't know
why he suddenly confessed that he's in love with me. I don't know since when he started liking me but I must admit that it's affecting me so much and this is not a good thing, especially if he's not sincere. However, his eyes were showing me his sincerity. God! I don't know what to do anymore.
"I smell something..." Yara, who met me halfway, grinned suspiciously.
I felt my cheeks heated as I shook my head, "Nothing happened, Yara."
"Oh!" She gasped. "I didn't say anything, ma'am."
I frowned at her, "You wanna get fired?"
She moved her forefinger side to side while still grinning, "Uh oh! You won't do that. Tell me, he's already your boyfriend, right?"
"Yara!"
She giggled, "I'm sorry for being nosy, but did you two talk about having a long and steamy night later-Ouch!"
I felt like crying from embarrassment. Yara just giggled.
I bit my bottom lip when Yara leaned closer to me again and whispered. "He's so sexy, ma'am. Did you already do...you know."
My cheeks burned even more as I gasped. "Yara, stop it!"
"Ehh! From the looks of it, you already had a long steamy night-"
I tried to hit her again but before my palm landed on her arm, she quickly fled

away from me and greeted the new customer that came.
I palmed my forehead and squeezed my eyes closed. Gosh! She's corrupting my mind and because of everything she said, I don't know if I can still properly. face Klay later.
The customer who picked up her orders came and I was the one who entertained her. After she left, Yara went besi me again. I thought she's gonna talk about work but she has another vulgar word to say that could corrupt my mind. "Ma'am, did you already try bj on him?"
My forehead creased, "Bj?"
She grinned evilly, "My innocent boss!"
She leaned closer and whispered... "Blowjob."
My eyes widened, "Yara! I'm really gonna fire you...'
"Good afternoon, Sir. Are you looking for a particular flower? We have everything you might like." She was quick to run away again and greeted the new customer like a hardworking employee.
I palmed my forehead again as I watched Yara while biting my lip.
I felt so uneasy when Klay opened the car door for me. I silently slipped myself inside the passenger seat while Klay shut the door beside me and went to the driver seat.
The awkwardness I'm feeling worsened when I saw Yara standing outside the shop while waving her hand at us. A smile was plastered on her lips.
I was so nervous that I jumped in shock when Klay leaned to me and put my seatbelt on.
He looked at me and chuckled, "What's going on in that pretty head of yours,
Kelly?"
I immediately looked away, "Nothing."
"Hmm..." I felt him moving even closer. So close that I could feel his warm and fresh breath against my cheek.
"What are you doing, Klay?" I asked even without looking at him.
He chuckled softly again, "I'm planning to kiss you."
"What-"I was taken aback when I looked at him and realized that our lips almost touched. My heart raced like crazy.
I swallowed hard, "M-Move away..."
"No!" He looked straight into my eyes. "I'm gonna bite your tongue and get the answer myself since you don't wanna tell me what's on your mind."
I panicked. I know him as a man who will do anything he said.
"I'm hungry! So I was thinking about our dinner."
The corner of his lips rose, "Dinner date, babe. Our first dinner date."
I thought he's gonna move away now that I answered him but he didn't. Instead, he pressed his lips on mine. I felt like my soul left my body just because of that simple kiss.
He didn't move his lips or what. He just pressed his lips on mine but it sent me thousands of electricity that made my body shiver.
I sucked my breath when he moved away after a few seconds. I looked at him. slowly as he put his seatbelt on and looked at me with a grinning face.
I couldn't look away. I feel like his eyes were sucking me in and tempting me to stare at him more.
"Don't worry about our date. Everything's planned perfectly."
He planned everything? But why do I feel disappointed?
My eyes then landed on his lips as he started the engine and drove.
I swallowed hard, realizing why I'm disappointed. That's because I expected him to kiss me more deeply and longer but he didn't.
I had a hard time convincing myself to stop sulking and just forget about what happened.
When we reached the restaurant, I was shocked after I realized that it was my favorite restaurant.
A smile crept on my lips as the server greeted us and accompanied us to the table that Klay reserved for us.
The world is Too Small For Us
Klay pulled the chair for me. When I sat there, he leaned to my right side and whispered... "I see you're very happy. Think I deserve a reward later."
My cheeks burned again. I sat there stiff while he walked toward the chair across from me and sat there. I stared at his grinning face but my line of vision suddenly got distracted by the people on the table behind him.
Klay saw my reaction and he immediately looked behind him. His forehead. creased and pulled himself up and went beside me. I looked up at him, confused.
"Let's exchange seats," he said.
I appreciate what he said but it's too late. I already saw them and they already saw us, too. Pierce and Lexi are in the same restaurant as we are and I couldn't help but blame fate for being this playful,
